ABSTRACT:
Two sensors spaced at a known separation produce signal pulses when activated by the wheels of a taxiing aircraft. The signals are transmitted to a processor in which the wheelbase of the aircraft can readily be calculated. Since specific aircraft types have unique wheelbase dimensions and characteristics, the type of aircraft passing the sensors is determined in a processor. Also, the time, direction, and speed of the aircraft can be determined and logged by the processor.
